This is a great looking print and I am a fan, but I'm not sure why one would expect it to sell out straight away. Laz still has 4 different hand finished prints available and the last edition of 100 he did with a gallery in texas has been around for quite a while and has not sold out.

Really like this. Cheaper (not hand finished) but i prefer this image to Laz editions.

Do you have a link to the print from the Texas gallery?

Because:
1) Brett has a pretty good fan base in the US
2) the prints still available at Sebastian Foster are smaller and weaker images. That gallery doesn't really do a good job letting people know some of those are still available. One of those sold on eBay for $70 recently and it's available for $50 from at the gallery. The gallery sold "waiting #93," which was a strong image, and it sold out pretty quickly
3) Ken does a hell of a job promoting art and artists at Spoke Art. The last Amory sold out fairly quick and this is a much better and bigger image
4) this particular image seems to be a fan favorite with fans asking for it to be made into a print after seeing it the first time.

You may benefit from the Josh Keyes print being released on the same day.

These are all valid points and I just want to make it clear that I was not trying to say anything negative about the piece or the gallery. I was just offering my opinion for the forum member who was worried about missing the drop. From what I have seen It seems like Amory's work doesn't sell as quickly as it should and is not the kind of thing flippers deal in (Thankfully). Any way as I stated I am a big fan of Amory and this print. I hope it does sell out quickly, and I hope everyone here who wants one can get it.

Anyone know if Spoke Art send to UK and how much they charge for carriage?

Just had a framed piece delivered from Spoke. Very well packaged!

So, estimated postage cost to the uk? Have a few prints of his now and would like to add this. Great value and a nice bloke too.

As a teaser, here's my new original that I received just an hour ago. It's only 3x5", but I'm really pleased:

[Martin M]

Thats nice hnkpnk, where did you get it?

Anyone know what time this new print is dropping?

[Ken Hashimoto]

Some great discussions going on in this thread, productive dialog of any kind is always good to see and sometimes hard to find on the forums, cheers!

To answer a couple questions:
HPMs will ship flat, so no worries on paint cracking etc. in transit.

We ship internationally all the time, the regular edition will ship rolled and will be around $20 to get to the UK.

Our last release with Brett, Waiting 96, sold out in less than four minutes. Of course, Bob's Donuts is considerably larger and more expensive, but at the same time, I also think it's a stronger image. Interest across all the forums has been pretty high this week, and our feature on Arrested Motion today may point a few new heads our way, but who knows! At the end of the day my advice to collectors alway is: buy it because you love it, not because of the hype!

The prints will release in about 2.5 hours, in the meantime here are a few more pics from our signing and painting session with Brett!

I would PM Ken (the OP), I have dealt with him a couple of times (both through the Gallery and at EB), and he is a great person to deal with.

*edit: Looks like Ken beat me to it! See post above mine.

That's a great piece. Congrats.
I have an original on its way too.
Can't wait to see it in the flesh.
It's not huge, but a good size. Around 40x30 cm.
I really am very excited.

Hope the print sale goes well ken. I am sure it will. Lots of love for these cracking prints.

pleased to add to our Brett Amory collection..

It says on Spoke Art website that "Please note: Spoke Art is not responsible for items lost or misplaced in transit" but surely, if the print doesn't arrive, it is still their responsibility. No?

a lot of places say that...Im sure if that actually happened they would work with you.

couldn't resist this image, International postage was $15 by the way

We'll always work with our collectors to make sure they're happy, the formality is more to encourage folks to go with upgraded shipping if they live in an area that's prone to mail theft etc. Nothing worst than seeing a package has been delivered, but not actually received, total nightmare for everyone involved!

[sharpster]

came home late and still bagged one... looking forward to the standard print!

[Ken Hashimoto]

Very big congrats to Brett for another sold out release with Spoke Art! Gonna try to get these all embellished, signed and shipped by the end of next week, stay tuned! Thanks again everyone!
